Saul S. Sherman (September 25, 1917 – October 10, 2010) was a professional American football quarterback in the National Football League (NFL).
Sherman played collegiately for the University of Chicago, initially as a halfback, before converting to quarterback his senior year.
[1] Sherman only played two seasons in the pros before he retired to go fight in World War II, but not before he helped teach the T-formation to his Bears teammate, future Pro Football Hall of Famer Sid Luckman, who would go on to use the T to revolutionize the NFL's passing game and quarterback the Bears to four NFL championships.
This remains arguably Sherman's most lasting legacy in pro football.
